Trees for Precinct 3 Parks

Per the Community Impact Newspaper :

Radack looks to add more trees to Precinct 3 parks

Precinct 3 Commissioner Steve Radack requested authorization at the March 12 Harris County Commissioner’s Court meeting to accept 8,000 trees from the Apache Corporation Tree Grant Program.  Valued at $60,800, the trees are to be planted in multiple parks within Precinct 3 along trails and roadways.

Apache is a Houston-based oil and gas company that has awarded more than 3 million trees across 16 states.  There are 15 Precinct 3 parks in the Katy area, with Mary Jo Peckham Park as the largest in the City of Katy’s limits at 32 acres with a variety of amenities, including a fishing pond.  Precinct 3 has 54 parks overall.

Trees for Mason Road Park!

Eagle Scout Troop 1146 planted 50 trees in the Mason Road Park this morning!

Harris County Precinct 3 provided the trees and the troop provided the labor.

And another troop is scheduled to plant another 50 in the park!

Harris County Precinct 3 already had some trees in place but there was room for more!

I'm thankful for the trees!
